  • Title: Measuring cocaine effect expectancies among therapeutic community inpatients.
    Author: Schafer J, Fals-Stewart W.
    Journal: Addict Behav; 1996; 21(2):205-10. PubMed ID: 8730522.
    Abstract:
    Evidence has accumulated that beliefs about alcohol contribute to the etiology and maintenance of different patterns of drinking and drinking-related behavior. This research focus has been expanded from alcohol to include marijuana and cocaine. The present study was designed to improve upon earlier efforts to measure the domain of cocaine effect expectancies, which were based on samples of college students. Confirmatory factor analyses of the 24-item Cocaine Effect Expectancy Questionnaire (CEEQ) were conducted using a sample of 231 therapeutic community inpatients in the northeastern United States. The suggested factor structure was not confirmed. Empirical support was found for a 4-item Positive Effects scale. This scale did not have a significant effect on treatment participation.
